(more)The medal ceremony at a Kuwaiti shooting event provoked bemusement and red faces when the wrong anthem was played to Kazakh gold medallist Maria Dmitrienko. Following a mix up with an internet download, the winner had to listen to a spoof anthem written for the film Borat. I believe Kuwait must put out a full apology to the people Kazakhstan. Borat has ruined this nations image abroad.

(more)Beijing silver medallist Lt Tom Lucy, 23 is nearly half way through his first tour of Afghanistan serving with K Company, 42 Commando Royal Marines. He helped Great Britain's 8 man rowing crew to finish just behind Canada in the Beijing finals in 2008. After achieving his Olympic dream he decided to fulfil his childhood ambition of joining the Royal Marines and earning the coveted Green Beret, which meant giving up his chance of rowing in the London 2012 Olympics. Tom said: "Joining the Royal Marines was always my life-time ambition; ever since I was 6 that's all I've wanted to do. I started rowing when I was fifteen. I had a brilliant time and got as far as I'd ever hoped and dreamed I'd get and after that it was time for a change". The Welshman, having completed the arduous course at Commando Training Centre Royal Marines Lympstone know finds himself leading the men of K Company in Nahr-e Saraj south in Helmand Province. Every day is different and can range from patrolling with the Afghan National Army and Afghan National Police to providing security for veterinary engagements. "It's very important work and we're helping to build the capability of the Afghan forces every single day. We're always out and about developing our relationship with the local people and deterring insurgents". There are vast similarities between life as an Olympic rower and as a Royal Marine. Staying fit is a necessity as is teamwork. But living in a humble patrol base is far away from the hype

(more)Please donate to Kazakhstan Almaty Association by going to the website below and clicking on a link. Go to: www.junecallwoodpark.com and click on a link. Kazakhstan's shooting team has been left stunned after a comedy national anthem from the film Borat was played at a medal ceremony at championships in Kuwait instead of the real one. The team asked for an apology and the medal ceremony was later rerun. The team's coach told Kazakh media the organisers had downloaded the parody from the internet by mistake. The song was produced by UK comedian Sacha Baron Cohen for the film, which shows Kazakhs as backward and bigoted.
